Like many second generation kids, her parents faced pressure to assimilate and distance themselves from their own cultures. In this way their choices created a void in her own identity that left her feeling “displaced and otherised…I was always different”.She wasn’t alone in these feelings.

And how she uses her music to populate this post-colonial space to reconnect with her own past.Listen and Subscribe to the Anxiety Hour on Apple , Spotify or whenever you get your podcasts.
